🙋🙋‍♂️🙋‍♀️🦸🦸‍♂️🦸‍♀️👨‍💻👩‍💻 Join the team and help triaging issues!

Joining the triagers crew
=========================

aiohttp is a busy project. It gets tens of new issues per week reported
sometimes. So maintaining it requires quite a lot of resources. Of course,
the most well-known forms of contribution are code and docs. But that's
not all of it. One of the resources we're lacking is time. And that's
where **you** come into play!

Helping to triage the incoming issues
=====================================

You can contribute to the maintenance of aiohttp by simply allocating
some of your free time towards reviewing the incoming issues.
All you need to do is to read-through the incoming issues queue and
decide whether it's actually a bug. Depending on that you could provide
a prompt response where applicable, apply labels or even close invalid
ones.

What exactly should I do?
-------------------------

1. Every once in a while, go through the [list of the newest issues](https://github.com/aio-libs/aiohttp/issues?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=is%3Aissue+sort%3Acreated-desc+).
2. Read each new posting.
3. Apply corresponding labels.
4. Decide whether you can immediately point to a solution/doc/communication channel and do this.
5. Add the *needs-info* label when more information is requested from a user (it will be automatically closed if they don't respond).
6. Close issues which are no longer relevant or already fixed.

Requesting to join
==================
1. Go to the [triagers repo](https://github.com/aio-libs/triagers/issues/new?labels=help+wanted&template=join-request.md&title=Please+add+me+%28%7B%7B+username+%7D%7D+%E2%80%94+replace+this%29+to+the+triagers+team).
2. Fill out the form (create an issue).
3. Wait until you get an invitation to the organization from one of the Core Devs.
4. Start triaging!

Anything else?
--------------

You can *also* opt-in to receive one random issue per day in your
inbox using CodeTriage service. This doesn't require being invited
into the triagers team in this GitHub org.
